Those companies that are surviving are doing so by a combination of innovation, cost control, marketing, developing new strategies and utilizing technological advancements in every step of the manufacturing process from ingredient purchasing through brewing, bottling, and distribution. The industry statistics for the American beer industry include:
Number of Brewers 170
Number of Brands 800
